On this edition of Illinois Rising, Dan Proft and Erik Kohn, Marketing Manager, Illinois Policy Institute, discuss the legislation that Kentucky passed last week making it a right-to-work (RTW) state, making Illinois’ only border state without RTW Missouri. However, with the new political landscape in Missouri, it is likely they will soon be RTW. They also discuss Mike Madigan’s recent election to his 16th term as speaker of the house, and the supposed “bipartisan” budget proposal.
